Great is the Lord! ____________________________________________________ The Warning:NOTE TO READERS: Since you have been reading these FatherSonSpirit messages, you have heard about "The Warning" over and over. (For instance, the July 23rd message says, "I will, in My mercy extend to them 'The Warning' because of My beloved Son, Jesus, who intercedes for them; yet shall many deny this; and many will be angry because of their spoiled plans, and My intervention in the lives of all who will be Mine.") Even if you do not believe that "The Warning" is going to occur, please print out the following information and keep it in a place that you will remember, so that when it DOES happen (and it WILL), you will have access to it. At that time, please take it to your church to help others who will be confused by what has happened to them.
WHAT HAPPENED?
You are here in church because--like every other person on earth--you've just had an experience that was eerie, confusing, spiritual, holy, and frightening. God allowed you to see your own soul, with all its faults and imperfections. This "spiritual X-ray" was an act of Divine Mercy, for the Lord wants you to know of, and repent of your sins. During the days of the prophet Hosea (750 B.C.), God lamented that "My people perish for want of knowledge!" (Hosea 4:6). That this might not occur again, He has given each of us a complete awareness of our sins and of our imperfections in His sight. Indeed, the prophet Habakkuk (600 B.C.) foretold that "The earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord's Glory" (Habakkuk 2:14)--a knowledge which makes our sinfulness stand out all the more vividly. This terrible revelation we've received is a summons to repentance. Like the early persecutor of the church, Saul of Tarsus (known to us today as the Apostle Paul), we have been stunned by a brilliant light (Acts of the Apostles 9:3), through which Jesus calls us to repent of our sins and to enter His service. "This is the time of fulfillment. The Kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the Gospel!" (Mark 1:15).
WAS THIS EVENT FORETOLD?
Yes, it was--not only indirectly through some of the Scripture passages quoted herein, but also in a more direct sense--through private revelations granted to various persons in our own 20th century. For instance, near the Spanish town of Garabandal, four girls named Mary Loli, Conchita, Maria Cruz, and Jacinta received Messages from Heaven from June l961 to November l965. The Messages predicted an event called "The Warning"--something that would occur within the lifetime of the girls. Jacinta stated that it "will be seen in the air everywhere in the world and (will be) immediately transmitted into the interior of our souls. It will last a short time but it will seem like a long while because of its effect within us." Conchita described the event as being like "two stars...that crash and make a lot of noise, and a lot of light...but they don't fall. It's not going to hurt us, but we're going to see it and, in that moment, we're going to see our consciences." Mary Loli added that the world would seem to stand still for a few moments, as the experience would be so absorbing for everyone. "The Warning" will not cause physical damage on earth, but--as a "preview of judgement"--will be a call to repentance for believers and non-believers alike. Other messengers have also spoken of the Warning, including Christina Gallagher of Ireland, who said, "There will come a sign, when everyone in the world will experience an inner awareness, and will know that this is of God, and see themselves as they really are." Theresa Lopez of Denver, Colorado, stated, "`The Warning' is called the moment of silence. And in the moment of silence our internal selves will be revealed. Its purpose is to stir the soul to conversion."
WHAT MUST I DO?
As St. Paul says, "You must consider yourselves DEAD TO SIN but ALIVE FOR GOD in Christ Jesus. Do not, therefore, let sin rule your mortal bodies and make you obey its lusts; no more shall you offer the members of your body to sin as weapons for evil. Rather, offer yourselves to God as men and women who have come back from the dead to life, and your bodies to God as weapons for justice" (Romans 6:11-13). If you sincerely repent of all your sins, GOD WILL FORGIVE YOU--but you must live from now on as a true follower of Jesus. This means attending church, obeying the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17), living in the spirit of the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-10), treating others as you would like to be treated, forgiving those who've sinned against you, using God's grace to resist temptation, confessing your sins to the Lord daily, praying regularly (ideally, every day), and placing God's will ahead of your own. It's vitally important to begin doing these things NOW--for "The Lord does not delay His Promise...but He is patient with you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (II Peter 3:9). Opportunities to repent are not unlimited; we don't know when we will face judgment--so we must seize this opportunity which God in His mercy has granted us.
SCRIPTURE PASSAGES
John 16:8 - "When the Holy Spirit comes, He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and condemnation."
Psalm 94:10 - "Shall not He Who instructs nations not chastise; He Who teaches men knowledge?"
Hebrews 4:12-13 - "Indeed, the Word of God is living and effective, sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating even between soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and able to discern reflections and thoughts of the heart. Nothing is concealed from Him, but everything is naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to Whom we must render an account."
II Corinthians 6:1-2 - "We appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain. For He says, 'In an acceptable time I heard you, and on the day of salvation I helped you.' Behold, now is a very acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation."

Message to Carol Ameche- May 4, 2003
5/4/03 In Summerville, S.C.
"My dearest people of My Merciful Heart, be lifted up now in the goodness and gracious mercy of your God. I am Jesus, Who loves you. I invite you into the tenderness that pours forth from My Wounds, placed there by the ingratitude of the world. No more harsh words and impatience, My beloved people! Listen to yourself first. Hear your sharp replies, your aggressive responses and haughty expectations of special treatment and places of honor. Understand that words wound and leave lasting impressions that can change lives and a belief in My love for those you harm.
The state of mind of the poor lost ones, who will come to you after the Warning, will be total confusion and great fear. Imagine the chaos that would occur in your own mind, were you not prepared so well and filled with all the understanding needed to bring you through these enormous events. Imagine, My faithful people, the terror that will enfold these dear ones who know not the forgiveness and tenderness of the Father. Dwell often and long on their state of mind and anxiety, as they move across great distances in search of help and understanding. I say again, My dear ones, spend MUCH TIME putting yourselves in their place, their state of mind and heart; what that level of terror will be like, as they flee from ongoing destruction and the sight of your own countries as a battle zone covered with great numbers of casualties. This will be an exercise in mercy as you attempt to alert your senses to the feelings and reactions, to identify with the reactions of the many who will struggle so to even reach your doorstep. Immediately you will discover the level of physical weakness and emotional fragility.
Fragile, My beloved disciples, means easily broken, frayed nerves that will start or cower or run for hiding and shelter in response to every abrupt and loud noise, to every raised voice, especially those who shout! Hushed and tender voices will be the rule for each moment as people continue to arrive day and night in a precarious emotional state. I remind you of these facts, My dear ones, because you must imagine and reflect and prepare for these times. They will have specialized needs, and you must spend time with Our Spirit in quiet listening as He tells you more about these days. My Spirit speaks to many tonight to prepare Our faithful ones to focus on this need for emphasis on a new and heightened state of terror. It is time (in my Father's Will) to tell you about this now.
Believe Me, My precious ones, you will always be on call to come to the aid of these victims who wander lost and lonely without trust, ready to fight to the death for those who remain behind in need and counting on the might of your arm, your cleverness to bring them into a place of safety from the perceived harm that will be everywhere. These are events that will be felt keenly by battered nerves, and seen as a continuation of events that threaten life and sanity at every turn. Ask Our Spirit for a clear understanding now of all they will experience and suffer. No other way will bring you into greater unity with their state of mind and fear and acute mental shock. It is My wish for you to begin to learn more in this new way about those whom you will find at your doorstep.
To love someone is to prepare for their arrival. When you received Me for that first time in Holy Eucharist, you studied and learned about Me, and how loving and generous I would be at this special time in your lives. You learned how necessary it would be to greet Me with great joy, to treat Me as an honored Guest and tend to all My needs. It will be even more necessary for these frightened and heartbroken brothers and sisters you have not yet met. When you expect guests, you purchase special treats and tasty morsels of meats, and spend long hours preparing your hearts and souls and houses for this august occasion. Would you do less for ones who are broken and in the greatest need? Whom you will consider it an honor to serve, as they are also your means of salvation. There they will stand, bearing many wounds, helpless and scared, completely at your mercy, so to speak!
Decide, write down what you would say, what you would like to hear and receive in a like situation. This use of imagination is a gift to them and to you in your attempt to be as prepared for them as possible, and an entirely-new-to-you experience. Do this for yourselves, My children. Do this for them. Make notes of your feelings and observations about yourselves and about them. This way of preparing, My children, is a legitimate and serious approach to a large group of people about whom you really know nothing, and can only conjecture as to the state of being they will inhabit. This WILL work. This WILL help, My faithful ones. I know how many of you hope to serve and comfort them as well as possible in the best possible way. You might do these mental exercises with others and compare notes: learning and teaching as you go. Continue in the guidance of Our Spirit and the dearest, tenderest, most loving Mother of all, Our own Immaculate Mother who waits to be needed, to be helpful, to bring you a greater degree of success and victory in your joyful attempts to make each truly comfortable and able to rest and trust and begin to heal.
Ponder My words, My loved ones. The more you practice and observe these studies in the use of the gift of imagination, the more you will learn, the more at ease you will be; and so, in turn, will they! Our Spirit WILL help you when you call. The Angels WILL help even now in simple practice rounds (!) It is your serious desire to do your best and help them heal most quickly that will move the Father to grant you more gifts, more opportunities to succeed. This will be such an exciting time, made more joyful for all by the love in your dear heart, the compassion you will immediately feel at the first sight of them. Ponder the possibilities, My beloved ones!" Carol Ameche

Urgent: Message via Louise Starr Tomkiel
May 15, 2003 -- 3:30 PM
Louise began to receive a message from Jesus and said, "Jesus, please cover me with Your most Precious Blood."
Then Jesus said, "My dearest children, you are now living the final hours of My Divine Mercy. Soon, I will expose to you, one and all, the exact state of your immortal souls. This is the hour, the minute, when YOU decide the eternal fate of your soul. The exact number of those who will choose to remain with Me forever IS VERY SMALL.
Now, after this warning takes place the full Wrath of God will be felt everywhere. The good and the bad will suffer as the 'Just Arm of God' falls. Sin is out of all proportion. Punishment must come to earth and all
mankind. God's wrath is unfathomable.
Man will not live love. Man will not accept mercy. Atheistic minds and hearts control your world, My Church, all business and industry, every phase of life. So, My children, the punishment will fit the crime.
During this time I will set a permanent sign, for ALL the world to see, in the heavens. Cameras will capture it. No one will not see it. People will be in awe of it. To many, it will give great strength. Many will curse it for they will know it is from God and NO ONE--NO ONE--can destroy it. It is My gift to give you strength. Remain always at the foot of My Cross.
From this day onward, you will see and hear of false prophets, and men who will claim to be Me. Signs will multiply, for all will be done as I have told you even while I was among you. This is not the end but a sign of the times. Watch as all My signs materialize.
End of message

Message to Carol Ameche- May 17, 2003
At Home, 5/17/03
"My beloved daughter, I am your God and Father, here to continue My call to you. You can tell from all the weather disasters that bigger changes are in your immediate future. I know you desire more exact information and a clearer understanding of 'when' and 'how'; but that you also know this cannot be, else how could you wait in joy and hope for all to occur, and be purifed and given increased patience in My plan?? You DO know that escalation is occurring. Fight doubt and fear with the strength of My Beloved Daughter, Mary. You see Our faithful ones everywhere floundering as though they had no guidelines, nor had been given any wisdom or understanding. I bid you to continue in your work to aid Our faithful people who need more by way of examples and increased faith and trust before they can gather information on their own from Our Holy Spirit.
I am your God! The people of the world must spend some time to finish this new task I have given them: to use the gift of imagination as a new and large part of your preparation for the thousands who will come needing food and shelter and healing immediately after the Warning. There will be other times first that you will accept those in need into your homes according to their helplessness and fragile state of mind. Be in a constant state of expectation of God's Good Things to keep your anticipation and joy at a new level of increased joyful hope and eagerness to greet these dear ones, and bring them into your homes. IT WILL WORK, My precious little ones. You will see!"

I have been putting together a list of facts gathered from the message of 5/4/03, and my own understanding (with the help of the Holy Spirit, I prayed... cta) of what we will be needing to do and say and be when all these people show up at our doorstep. It seems to me the Father is saying this is a good way for all of us to "get together" and share thoughts and insights about these people and this time of great change in the world and lives of everyone who is praying for them and for each other, expecting them to show up after the Warning, and benefit from each other's understanding. I have also felt a great urgency for everyone to begin to do this work of prayer of the imagination. Carol
These people will be in total confusion and fear, possibly terror, from the events of Warning and destruction that has or is happening at that time also; many will never have known the tenderness and forgiveness of the Father. They will be anxious, exhausted from the long trip to reach our homes and from the emotional state of loss and fear brought on by the fact that many will have lost everyone in their families and all their possessions, thus they will be helpless and needy without an understanding of the times or events. They will have been in flight from ongoing destruction and the sight of our countries as a battle zone covered with casualties, and perhaps in shock. It will have been a terrible struggle to reach us as a place of safety and help, and a state of physical weakness and emotional fragility could exist, which Jesus explained means easily broken and upset, further frightened, suspicious, no level of trust, frayed nerves, run for cover at each sharp sound or loud noise, which is often referred to as being hyper-vigilant. This would be a precarious emotional state, and they would have special needs: such as time to mourn and process the experiences and go through the five steps of process where there is great loss: denial, depression, anger, compromise, acceptance. There may be nightmares at first as part of this processing.
This all sounds very terrible and impossible for us to handle, but that is all the more reason it will be so important to remember the promises of Heaven: we will have all the help we need, and there will be nothing we are unable to do for them because it will be the power of God, the gifts and strength of Jesus and Mary, the help of Angels and the words and gifts of the Holy Spirit we will have. We will see Our Lady, not often, but when we need it the most for encouragement. Jesus also has said the sight of them and their neediness will bring enormous compassion to our hearts and the desire to welcome them and, remember, God the Father said a while ago: you ARE professional people persons, prayer professionals with all the gifts and ability and desire to serve those needs and comfort and shelter them. We must pray for pure motives, because our motives always need purifying; respect their fragile state and not begin by handing them bags of medals and rosaries and begin explaining the Father's plan immediately; that will come later when we are answering their questions and inviting them to pray with us... after they have spent time healing and resting and being restored with peace and the quiet joy of the atmosphere and emphasis on their recovery. If they are startled by loud noises and especially by raised voices, then we will need to speak in hushed tones with no harsh or impatient words. Only loving welcome and comfort in the Name of Jesus and Mary, and the sight of our own willingness to nurture and help them, will convince them immediately of the truth of our later answers to their questions.
There will be people arriving around the clock, so some organization will be needed for simply responding to the need of the moment. We will not see, I think, eight hours of sleep and 16 hours of day time routine, and will have the ability to do this according to Jesus' explanations in the past, that They will be standing right next to all of us (and these people!) to give us assistance and strength. This gives us some idea of how important repeated time before the Blessed Sacrament will be to renew us and refresh us. Remember, Jesus said we will know great fatigue and hard work and great struggle, but also will know the greatest joy possible on earth, and earn our own salvation by bringing these lost ones to the Father Who waits with open arms to forgive them and gift them as the heirs of His Kingdom all truly are. And they will surely be filled with joy and gratitude that shelter and peace has been found, although some will be too angry to accept healing, and then Jesus said, relinquish them to the Holy Spirit and do not think you have failed. I see this time as the greatest reason to go back over messages and become as encouraged and trusting and committed as possible. It looks as though our prayerful trust will be our greatest weapon against discouragement and fear. And it always helps to know what's ahead of us. Now if we only knew when!!! I am sure some of you will have many more results from your prayer of imagination (5/4 & 5/12) and putting yourselves in their places. cta.
